Petition Action

Cancel Belfast St. Patrick's Day due to coronavirus risk

Petition Details

We would like the Government or Parliament to enforce this action due to the growing fear among community. The ability to focus or concentrate is affected in addition to the growing fears of the Corona-virus.

Additional Information

In our view, the government and health officials around the world are more 'reactive' rather than 'proactive'. We would like the government to force councils to cancel St. Patrick's Day celebrations in the coming weeks or as soon as possible, in addition to taking necessary actions to prevent further spread.
